This is my first time starting a new thread.

Please help me to choose between the Damier Eva or Damier Pochette Accessoires and why? I bought the Pochette 3 days ago, but when I looked at Kat Lux's in I could not leave the shop WITHOUT her , I immediately fall in love with the Eva ... I confuse now, should I return the Pochette and get the Eva?

TIA

Damier Pochette Accessoires, it is a lot cheaper

prplhrt21 · Nov 7th, 2009, 03:14 AM

Keep the pochette.

kat lux · Nov 7th, 2009, 03:49 AM

Dear Ivinlove/ first of all thank you for compliments:)
I would say =

go and try Eva
Think about how would you like to wear your pochette - with a strap or without... Eva comes already with a starp . so it is included into the price. If you need to buy a strap for a pochette -it is extra money and all together is not much cheaper than Eva. In addition, the chain on Eva is much longer and more comfy to wear on the shoulder - for pochette i had to buy an extender (another extra money 80 Euro)
However pochetter might be more practical
You can not go wrong either way:)
I bought Eva because X mas nights out period with parties is coming and she would feet my clothes
Good luck

What I like about the Damier Pochette over the Damier Eva is that it doesn't have the LV nameplate. I wish the Damier Eva had the same nameplate as the Monogram version.

I'd keep the pochette. You can purchase a longer strap for it to wear crossbody; very cute!

follow your heart...

I prefer the Eva! It's a good size and I like how you have 2 options on how to wear it. Many people dislike the gold plate but I love that detail!

GL deciding!

Eva's shape is much nicer and has more refined details that the pochette.

MsFrida · Nov 7th, 2009, 11:04 AM

Go get the Eva!

MissLianne · Nov 7th, 2009, 11:27 AM

I actually was in the same predicament a few days ago. I already own 2 pochettes... Mono and MC. I really wanted something in Damier Ebene.

I looked at the Eva... I think its pretty but I don't see myself wearing it. I felt it was too "mature" for me? IDK. The gold strap is okay....

The pochettes are great. I tuck the strap into it when I want a clutch. And I have worn it over my shoulder as well.
I'm glad to have the Damier one bc I like the way it looks with the darker pieces in my wardrobe and I'm sooo sick of vachetta!

You definitely get more bang for your buck with the Eva, yes it cost more but it's a larger bag, gives you three ways to carry it and you can still detach the long strap and throw it in a larger bag if you need to. I'd exchange the pochette for this.

princesskara · Nov 7th, 2009, 12:15 PM

The eva is more, but I love that bag! It also depends on how your wear it, cause it actually is around the same price if you want a strap. I use my eva strap on my speedy's sometimes (I have the mono), so it actually ended up being one of my best buys.

pro_shopper · Nov 7th, 2009, 01:19 PM

I definetly prefer Eva, the strap makes it so much more verstatile and I love the gold plate on the front.

lvinlove · Nov 7th, 2009, 02:09 PM

Thank you all for your responses and comments, I appreciate it. You guys are so helpful

. So let me total so far:
